00:00How are you, my dear brothers?
00:20Back again with you in this
00:21a short capsule of getting to know each other
00:23Love, in which we are now
00:25Answering, it's the second part
00:27from a question he asked us
00:29our brother Luis from Quito,
00:31Ecuador, which asks us about
00:33the responsibility that one acquires
00:35a man who has had a son
00:37with a woman who is not his
00:39wife. That's the question that
00:41It's doing to us. What is the
00:43What responsibility do I acquire?
00:46And well, as I was saying, Luis,
00:47We cannot accept living in a
00:49relationship that Jesus clearly
00:51He tells us it's a sin. Now
00:54Okay, you comment
00:56that this relationship could take
00:58so that they can fulfill themselves as a couple
01:00the people who have committed this
01:02Adultery. Luis, please.
01:06But a partner is someone with whom you...
01:08He's married, not the other woman. The other woman isn't his
01:11partner. The other is a person with whom
01:15adultery was committed.
01:16Pretending to continue as a couple
01:20alternative with which it is not the own
01:23wife and the spouse himself is
01:25prolong an adulterous relationship and
01:27of grave infidelity to oneself
01:29spouse to whom love was sworn and
01:32Exclusivity for life. It's
01:35something that cannot be pleasing to the eyes
01:37of God. The woman who consented to this
01:40intimate relationship now faces
01:43single mother status must be assumed
01:45the responsibility for their actions and
01:47decisions. It is certainly a
01:49A very complicated situation, but if
01:52He wants to be a true Christian and
01:53To live according to the gospel, you will have to
01:56Educate your child by giving him love,
01:58protection, affection, and staying away,
02:02affectively, sentimentally and sexually of
02:05father of his child, especially if he is
02:09married and has a responsibility and a
02:11commitment to which to respond. For the
02:15Father, the situation is no less.
02:17complicated, because if infidelity is not
02:19discovered by the wife, to maintain a
02:22relationship with a child outside of marriage
02:24to whom, moreover, he owes protection and
02:27Honey, it will complicate your situation, because
02:30Your son is cared for with affection, it is
02:33In other words, he visits him, goes with him, keeps an eye on him.
02:36From him, this will increase the possibility
02:38that he is discovered and if he also maintains
02:42a certain type of relationship with the mother of
02:45child for any need, we
02:47We ask, what will prevent the
02:49What if the situation gets complicated? If it wasn't already.
02:52complicated, it will become a complication
02:54much larger. On the other hand, if you decide
02:57confessing her fault will be difficult for her
03:00wife agrees to let him visit
03:02son because of the risk involved in meeting
03:04with another woman. In short, a situation
03:08It's complicated, it's a complicated situation
03:10for everything, which makes us see that the
03:13The consequences of sin always
03:16They destroy our lives, the lives of the
03:19who live with us. That's why it's true.
03:21with great accuracy what he said
03:23Saint Paul in his letter to the Romans, the
03:26The wages of sin is death. The world
03:29Today's does not value the aspect of the
03:33the totality of conjugal love and some
03:35husbands are willing to share them
03:39with other people without realizing it
03:41great harm they cause with these actions
03:44or attitudes. Jesus came to teach us what
03:49which means to love and to love until the
03:51extreme, which means fidelity and
03:55to give oneself completely and fully.
03:58Young and not-so-young marriages
04:01Young people want to start a relationship now
04:05While married, a life similar to that
04:08who lived as bachelors. They dress
04:10provocatively, they flirt, they coquettish and
04:14They approach people of the sex
04:17opposite as if they had no commitment
04:20or any responsibility towards their spouse,
04:23without thinking that all their love, their glances,
04:27His heart belongs to him exclusively.
04:31to the person they married and to
04:33to whom they swore love at the altar
04:36all our lives. These details that we
04:39They may seem insignificant or bland
04:42can be a cause of infidelity and
04:45even sexual intimacy, which not a few
04:48sometimes results in a child not
04:51desired or planned, which will pay in the end,
04:55This son will ultimately pay the consequences.
04:57about something he had nothing to do with.
05:00However, we must not forget that when
05:03We repent of our sins, the
05:06God's grace extends over us
05:08sin, and as Saint Paul says, where
05:10Sin abounded, but grace abounded all the more.
05:13So if this couple regrets it
05:16He deeply accepts his sin and turns
05:19towards God, He will heal, God will heal all the
05:23wounds that sin has left. We must
05:26allow God to work in your hearts
05:28of those involved, but each one has
05:32to respond and make their own
05:35responsibilities and must fulfill them.
05:38In most cases it is necessary to break
05:41the physical and emotional relationship with the
05:43woman and pray and ask for guidance
05:46to decide the best way to comply
05:49the responsibilities that were undertaken with
05:52the son himself, looking after his needs
05:55economic and allowing God to
05:58manifest it in your life. When there is true
06:00Through conversion and repentance, God will heal and
06:04This will redeem the situation. This conversion
06:07true and heartfelt will be the only one
06:10possibility that everyone has, the child and his
06:13Parents can be completely happy. It's love.
06:17God is the one who plans, human love that
06:20He may be fallible and immature. If truly
06:24They are interested in achieving and fulfilling themselves
06:28Fulfillment and happiness, the only way is God.
06:33the God of the covenant who redeems all our
06:36experiences of sin, prayer, and life
06:40sacramental, adhere to the teachings of
06:43Gospel and penance will gradually come into play.
06:47healing wounds and guiding the lives of
06:50Three on a path of love and forgiveness.
06:54I hope this comment was helpful.
06:57usefulness to you, my dear Luis, and to so many
07:00other people who have had this experience and
07:04who sometimes find themselves trapped. We must accept our
07:08responsibility and we must let God go
07:12marking the paths, mainly having as
07:15the most important point in life that one must
07:18fulfilling marital responsibilities with the
07:21that we promised on our wedding day
07:24marriage. So, well, I'll leave it at that.
07:26A delicate, difficult subject; hopefully it could have been...
07:29Very useful for all of you. See you at our
07:32next capsule and until then, may the Lord...
07:35May God bless you abundantly. Thank you.
07:36Bye.
08:06Bye.
08:08Bye.
